Texas Governor Rick Perry Drops out of 2012 Presidential Race - Supports Newt
(From Governor Perry’s Campaign Website)
Anita and I Thank You for Your Support
Posted on January 19th, 2012
.
Today I am suspending my campaign for President.
.
Anita and I have been blessed by the many supporters who have believed in our conservative vision for the country.
.
Although I will no longer be on the campaign trail, I will continue to champion conservative principles: a Washington that is humbler with a federal government that is smaller, real tax reform that can spur economic growth, and a renewed commitment to fiscal discipline so the future of this country is not mortgaged on a mountain of debt.
.
As we return to Austin and the Texas I love, I am proud to continue as governor of this great state and will work every day to make Texas a better place to do business and create jobs for all Texans.
.
We cannot thank you enough for your generous support which enabled our campaign to champion these conservative values.
.
God bless,
Rick Perry
.
………………………….
.
Many say they think you should have gotten out of the race when you went back to Texas to think it out a few weeks back. I for one am glad you didn’t and instead hung in there.
.
You really made a good showing for yourself these last few weeks and I’m soooo happy you went ahead and folded today and not after getting a spanking this Saturday. I also want to thank you for giving your support to my man, Newt!
.
With that said…
Nothing but the best to you and yours.

Iowa Caucuses, What a Night!
Photo from Santorum official campaign website
.
Here’s a few good political reads I ran across this afternoon that you just might like to click out…
- USAToday.com had this interesting read and it starts off like this…
Why didn't Newt Gingrich praise Mitt Romney for his squeaker win in Iowa, when he spoke warmly of Rick Santorum, who came within a handful of votes of the top spot?… "Other than the fact that Governor Romney ran a relentlessly negative campaign of falsehoods, which earned one of his ads four Pinocchios from the Washington Post?" Gingrich said at a news conference Wednesday. "The fact is, three out of four Republicans rejected him. Governor Romney is a moderate Massachusetts Republican to the left of the vast majority of Republicans. I find it amazing that the media continues to say he's the most electable Republican when he can't even break out in his own party…
Read the rest at link below…
.
- From CNN.com is this report…
.
- Also from USA Today is the following report that starts off like this… Michele Bachmann and Rick Perry both hit their high-water mark on the same day - Aug. 13, when Bachmann won the Iowa straw poll and Perry formally entered the Republican presidential race… Now they've shaken up the race in tandem again… Bachmann announced her withdrawal from the race on Wednesday, at the same time that Perry indicated he would take his battered campaign to South Carolina for the Jan. 21 first-in-the-South GOP primary…

……………………………………..………………
My Take: What a night last night was watching the Iowa Caucuses to the very end. Congrats to Mitt and Rick for what I consider to be a tie for first even though Mitt actually won but by only 8 votes! And that didn’t come until way after midnight, Central Time.
.
I was saddened that my man, Newt… got such a beating over these last few weeks. But… sadly, that is the game we are in.
.
I hope he does REAL well in South Carolina and Florida in the weeks ahead. So far -- So good! He’s up in the polls in both as of today. Unfortunately… politics is very fluid, especially this election year. Soooo…. We shall see just how it all pans out. Fingers Crossed!

POST UPDATE:
Thursday, January 19, 2012
.
Santorum bested Romney by 34 votes in the final tally of Iowa's caucuses, Republican officials said Thursday [January 19th]. But no winner was declared because some votes remain uncertified two weeks after the event's closest contest ever. The state GOP initially declared Romney the victor - by just 8 votes… "This is a solid win. It's a much stronger win than the win Gov. Romney claimed to have," Santorum declared… Romney called the Iowa results a "virtual tie." Santorum called it a sign any calls for him to leave were premature…

ABC Republican Presidential Debate Tonight
Saturday, December 10, 2011
Time: 8:00pm CST
.
* REUTERS brings us the following report and it starts off like this… The budding rivalry between surging Newt Gingrich and former frontrunner Mitt Romney will take center stage Saturday evening in the first of two Republican presidential debates in Iowa over the next five days… Gingrich, Romney and four other White House contenders will make their case to voters in a race that polls show is still up for grabs less than a month before Iowa kicks off the state-by-state Republican nominating contest… The debate will be broadcast nationally on ABC at 9 p.m. EST from Drake University in Des Moines. Another Republican debate will be held on Thursday in Sioux City, Iowa… "These are the last chances for the candidates to really have an impact on the race before the voting starts," said Republican strategist Matt Mackowiak. "It's a huge opportunity."…

One of my favorite moments in tonight’s debate would had to been when Newt said... "I think sometimes it is helpful to have a president of the United States with the courage to tell the truth. Just as it was Reagan who went around his entire national security apparatus to call the Soviet Union an 'evil empire.' Reagan believed the power of truth restated the world and reframed the world. I'm a Reaganite. I'm proud to be a Reaganite. I will tell the truth, even if it causes some confusion sometimes with the timid."
.
Bottom line is Newt did an outstanding job tonight in the debate. Romney on the other hand really had a poor performance tonight. And I believe it will show to be so in the polls that come out next week.
.
I also believe Romney is going to have to do a much better job of it in next week’s debate on Fox News. If not… he just might end up having a shorter run of it then he was counting on!

Herman Cain Ends His 2012 Presidential Run - December 03, 2011
Image Credit- Cain’s official campaign website
.
Fox News brings us the following report on Mr. Cain and it starts off like this… Herman Cain announced Saturday that he is suspending his Campaign for President, telling a crowd of supporters in his home state that the allegations of sexual harassment and infidelity had become too big a burden on his family… Read the full report at link below…
.
………………………..…………..
Mr. Cain wasn’t my dog in the hunt… But… I loved what he brought to the Debates over the last so many months…. In the end though… I too, like so many others, was truly saddened by all the accusations that went down hard upon him in the end.
.
Good run my friend… Good run…
